Hayman et al. (1966: 61) mentioned one DRC record, an immature specimen from Avakubi (AMNH 48934), which according to Koopman (1965: 23) represents T. (C.) aloysiisabaudiae . They also mentioned (p. 67) one specimen from Eala (RMCA 6565, Equateur Province) belonging to T. (T.) brunnea . According to Simmons (2005: 449) , Nyctinomus brunneus is a synonym of Tadarida aegyptiaca . However, Fenton & Peterson (1972: 19) re-examined this specimen and found that it represented T. aloysiisabaudiae . A third specimen was collected in Yalosemba (Mongala Province). A further specimen (RBINS 13826 from Iso.4, Garamba National Park) was identified as T. trevori by Hayman et al. (1966: 65) , but was re-identified as T . aloysiisabaudiae by Peterson (1972: 2) . All of these localities are in the northern part of the DRC . Fahr (2013k: 494) indicates that C. aloysiisabaudiae is mainly found in the rainforest and adjacent northern and eastern rainforest-savanna mosaics, one record very marginally in the Sudan savanna. Specimens were reported from Côte d’Ivoire , Ghana , Cameroon , Gabon , Central African Republic , DRC , South Sudan and Uganda . The SDM map suggests it might occur as far west as Liberia and as far east as central Ethiopia , western Kenya and northwestern Tanzania . Furthermore, it might extend southwards to southern DRC and northeastern Angola .
